It was two parts, one part encoded the data to be embedded/Cut-N-Pasted into asm file. The other was the decode proc to return the data unencoded. I just do not want the clear text to be visible in a utility like ProcExp. What I remember was it was fairly sophisticated, but not impossible to decode.

You help me to remember, in QEditor, under Code, is "Create Mangle Text".

The link in QE is to an exe called "mangle.exe" which is in the MASM32 directory. There is nothing that you cannot break if you take long enough but the separation of the data and the code will add enough grief to the life of the hacker to slow up most of them.

I should have added, there is a trick to make life even more miserable for the would be hacker, as soon as you have decrypted and used the string, overwrite it with garbage which narrows the window to view the text. The main PHUN with the original technique is to make the binary very hard to modify as it involves changing both code and data.
